piers_plowman Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) A fellow member of my current department got a phone call from Fordham's DGS a while ago (Feb 3rd, a Friday) with his PhD acceptance. He's not on GC so he wouldn't have posted, but it's possible acceptances have all gone out by now. I didn't apply there myself, so I don't have any other info. I'm sorry - I hope they contact you!

I was accepted into Fordham's MA program. I applied for the PhD so that's kind of a bummer but....I received full funding and a stipend for two years! Which is way better than my last MA acceptance which gave no guaranteed funding. Congratulations! I bet you're over the moon!

No, no, no need to be sorry. I try to be very zen about all of this. I've done all I can in terms of the application and whether they choose to extend me an offer is out of my hands. Fordham is very selective due to their funding structure, so I considered it one of my reach-schools. However, as Tom Petty says, "The waiting is the hardest part!" They'll get around to telling me no eventually

I want to cry, the amount of choices is getting overwhelming and I just feel so validated. Congratulations !! I see you have been accepted to the MSU too. Have you received any funding offer yet ?

Is that a normal thing to do on the grad cafe? I just created one (credit to your idea). Only time will tell if people actually use it, but it seems like a really good idea.

yanicus Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Congrats to all the Cornell admits from someone one the waitlist? I do love the irony of it taking a while to get to Ithaca, if that's where one's supposed to go, although I really hope it doesn't last for years

I don't see any but also I am tired and loopy Edit: also how did you get your waitlist notification? Email? TY! Edited February 15, 2017 by shoestofollow

Maybe there's a communications mix-up?

shoestofollow Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 I don't have anything on my admissions portal for Cornell. I guess this means rejection :(
yanicus Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Ugh I'm sorry I shouldn't have posted anything then
piers_plowman Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 I'm in at Cornell! Totally random website check after seeing the posters here. No email yet (although I assume that's coming). Definitely check the portal if you haven't, and best of luck to everyone! claritus and ProfessionalNerd 2

Yanaka Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Do you guys know if we had to go to a different website to see our NYU application status?

They said I'm number one on the list, so I really hope that in the MA program that lit funding can slide over to rhet/comp! Apparently it does! I have funding for graduate school! I can go! Yippee!

SB is the last of my top three programs that I'm waiting to hear from before I really start trying to narrow down my options. Congratulations to all of the Cornell acceptances today! Man...when I logged on to check the results page, it was just a TON of Cornell news!
